App Review: Right Click



Right Click is a tutorial app that is there to teach you about the different settings on your DSLR camera. Right Click helps us to learn visually by showing us the affects that the different settings have on a photo. There are several different modes to help us learn: 

View Mode: To let us see the affect first hand by using a slider at the bottom of the screen

Read Mode: For the textbook lovers out there, helps understand through documentation

Photography Styles: Shows different techniques and styles for all sorts of photographing situations


Here we pick from the different Modes of learning. Lets say you pick "View Mode"


Here we can select the different Shutter Speeds, tune the Aperture, and select the ISO range. By clicking on these they bring up a sample photo with a slider at the bottom, to see how the changes affect your photos.


This is what you will be presented with if you choose Read Mode. From here we can select any of the topics and read a short page about them. With a nice UI and very fluid movement this app is built well, and it shows here.


Here is the Photography Style page. It teaches you about what settings to use in what situations. This has come in hand quite a few times and is a great resource for anyone who is just getting started taking manual photos. 

Overall this app is great. I read through it and understood what it was saying. I am not normally a big advocate of tutorial apps, but this one works well. There are no ads and it is a free download so I appreciate that a lot. The app is built well and is quick and easy to use. Although there are transition sounds so make sure you don't accidentally open it in a quite room without your sound being off! What do you think of the app? Did it teach you something that you didn't know about your camera's settings? Leave a comment below or respond on Reddit or Twitter.
